1 2 form y separately published work icon Peter Pan P. J. Hogan , Michael Goldenberg , ( dir. P. J. Hogan ) United States of America (USA) : Revolution Studios , 2003 Z1864575 2003 single work film/TV children's adventure fantasy

The first live-action sound film version of J.M. Barrie's work, Peter Pan tells the story of the boy who never grew up, and his adventures in Neverland with both the Lost Boys and London children Wendy, John, and Michael, as well as the Lost Boys' ongoing battle with the sinister Captain Hook.

The film preserves the stage tradition of using the same actor to play both Captain Hook and Wendy, John, and Michael's father, Mr Darling, but breaks with tradition in casting a male actor (rather than a young girl) as Peter.
